Adamare is a tiny project in the Ribeira Sacra led by Victor, Javi and Iago - three young men whose path in life is defined by their commitment to preserving the rural traditions of their ancestors. They were born and raised in Quiroga, a village where the principal economic activities have historically been grape farming, animal husbandry and coal mining. Of the three, coal mining was the most lucrative by far. However, the improving economics of renewable energy along with EU legislation calling for the suspension of Member States' subsidies for non-competitive mines have led to the near-total elimination of the sector in Spain. Employment numbers went from as high as 50,000 in the 1990s to 3,700 in 2012 to effectively zero today. The 2020 vintage of Adamare is a blend of 95% Mencía and 5% Garnacha Tintorera (Alicante Bouschet). The must ferments with 15% whole clusters in stainless steel and malolactic proceeds naturally in the same vessel. Rustic and spicy this wine is great with anything with a bit of char on it.
